Abstract

Abstract A semiconductor integrated circuit including delay means for generating an output signal delayed by a predetermined time with respect to an input signal when a logic level of said input signal changes in a first direction. The delay means receives a control signal and generates an internal control signal which is delayed by a predetermined time with respect to the control signal when a logic level of the control signal changes in a first direction, including a capacitor for delaying the control signal and a resistor having one end and having the other end connected to the capacitor.
